Sorry some taken down (for safety reasons,) reducing # of perches; had one giving access to my bedroom window, as morning 'alarm clock!'

See them often in Maryland. Got an eagle in this huge tree in the forest around the apartment. When the fall leaves have fallen you can see thier gigantic nest in the highest reaches of the trees branches. They come back every year.
I want to photograph them next year but need a little better camera set up,and a way to get the screen lifted up for taking the photos in my Apartment window it seems jammed and I don't want to break it.
